Red Horse Chestnut - Buckeye Fort McNair

A beautiful specimen tree perfectly suited for use in smaller landscapes. The dense, rounded crown of disease resistant, dark green foliage turns a golden yellow in the fall. Showy, dense panicles of pink flowers with yellow throats are very attractive in the spring.

Fort McNair Horsechestnut's bright show-stopper qualities make this a great tree for shade as well as beauty. We recommend that it be planted at least 10 feet away from buildings. Fort McNair would be great in a backyard for shade and charm near a patio, as well as the front yard to accent the home. Fort McNair Horsecchestnut will standout planted within flower beds or even standing brilliantly by itself. Planted outside a window will bring hours of watching Hummingbirds come.
